Chapter 85: Self-Destruction of Golden Core, Feigning Madness?
On the arena, terrifying shockwaves continued to surge.
Master Xuanyang had disheveled hair, and his Taoist robe was so tattered it looked like a beggar's garment.
In a disheveled state, they scrambled and tumbled into the air, desperately fleeing into the distance.
Not daring to even turn her head, Chun Chun was like a stray dog, panicked and desperate.
As a result, he had only darted a short distance when the space in front of him suddenly distorted.
Lu Jingchen's figure appeared instantly, like a ghost.
He stood firmly in front of Master Xuanyang with his hands behind his back, a mocking smile on his face.
They treated this Golden Core expert like a monkey show, showing him no respect whatsoever.
Master Xuan Yang slammed on the brakes, freezing in mid-air.
His face turned deathly pale instantly, his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, and his expression was filled with terror.
Master Xuanyang (his voice trembled like a leaf, his throat was cracking):
"How... how did you teleport to my side?"
"This is a top-tier escape technique that shrinks the distance to an inch! How could you possibly know it?!"
Lu Jingchen sneered on the spot, his eyes full of disdain.
Lu Jingchen said:
"How could an old piece of trash like you possibly fathom my methods?"
"Your pathetic escape skills are no different from crawling in my eyes."
Master Xuan Yang quickly looked around, but found himself completely blocked off in all directions.
There was no way out; there was no way to go to heaven or to hell.
His face instantly turned ferocious, and his eyes revealed a crazy, desperate look.
Like a mad dog cornered, baring its teeth.
Master Xuanyang gritted his teeth and uttered a vicious threat:
"I'm a Grandmaster at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, after all!"
"If you push me too far, don't blame me for self-destructing my golden core!"
"At worst, we'll both die together! No one will get away with this!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the spiritual energy around him surged violently.
The golden core inside his dantian trembled violently, as if it were about to explode.
They were all geared up, looking like they were really going to fight Lu Jingchen to the death.
Lu Jingchen simply shrugged, looking completely indifferent.
I felt no fear whatsoever, as if I were watching a clown jumping around.
Lu Jingchen said:
"Fine, I'll stand right here and not move an inch."
"You can detonate your golden core right now, hurry up, don't dawdle."
"Everyone's watching, so don't just talk the talk, walk the walk."
The violent aura surrounding Master Xuanyang instantly froze.
His face turned pale and then flushed in an instant, as if a dye shop had been opened.
The originally surging spiritual energy immediately stalled and stagnated in mid-air.
Anyone with eyes can see that this old man is extremely afraid of dying and wouldn't dare to self-destruct.
Lu Jingchen laughed on the spot, his sarcasm reaching its peak.
Lu Jingchen said:
"What's going on? Didn't you just confidently say you were going to self-destruct your golden core?"
"Tens of thousands of people are watching, are you trying to show off?"
"Give us a real explosion! Don't just talk the talk but walk the walk, it's embarrassing."
The crowd below erupted in uproar.
Pointing and laughing erupted like a tidal wave.
"Wow! He's a master of empty threats! All talk and no action!"
"I can't laugh! Is a Grandmaster of the Golden Core realm putting on a comedy sketch?"
"So cowardly, what kind of referee are you? You should go home and farm!"
Xuan Yang Zhenren felt a burning pain on his face as he listened to the jeers below.
It felt like being slapped hundreds of times in public; I was filled with shame and indignation.
He'd lived most of his life, and this was the first time he'd ever been so humiliated; he'd lost all face.
Master Xuan Yang flew into a rage on the spot, his eyes turning red, and roared like a madman:
"Damn it! You forced me to do this!"
"Even if I die today, I'll take you down with me!"
He roared, and his body instantly shone with golden light.
The spiritual energy surged wildly, and the golden core trembled even more violently.
He adopted a posture as if he was about to detonate his golden core and perish together with his opponent.
They were even more determined than before, looking like they were really going to fight to the death.
Just as the golden light reached its peak, and everyone thought he was about to self-destruct,
Xuan Yang Zhenren suddenly and abruptly concealed all his aura.
Her entire body transformed into a thin, wisp of light.
It fled wildly in the opposite direction, so fast that it was just a blur.
Chun Chun was just using a feint, pretending to fight desperately while actually running away. Lao Liu's behavior was the epitome of cunning!
A hint of undisguised disdain flashed in Lu Jingchen's eyes.
Like watching a clown jumping around, his figure flashed by.
Once again, they intercepted Xuan Yang Zhenren's escape route with unparalleled precision.
There wasn't even a half-second error; it was completely blocked.
Lu Jingchen shook his head helplessly, his face full of disgust.
Lu Jingchen said:
"I've never seen anything like this before. I'm so old, and Chun Chun is just a coward."
"I thought you could be a bit tougher and save me some trouble."
"I never expected I'd have to personally send you on your way. What a hassle."
Lu Jingchen slowly raised his right hand, spreading his five fingers.
He gently grasped Xuan Yang Zhenren's hand from afar.
The movements were so casual, as if he were crushing an ant.
Lu Jingchen gave a soft shout, his tone devoid of any emotion:
"Destroy".
The moment the words fell, the space around Master Xuanyang...
It seemed to freeze instantly, like an airtight iron box.
An endless, terrifying force was pressing in from all directions.
It was like Mount Tai pressing down on you, leaving not a single gap.
Master Xuanyang let out a piercing scream, like a pig being slaughtered.
Xuan Yang Zhenren (screams in agony):
"Ah—! No! This can't be!"
He desperately channeled all his spiritual energy to resist, his face turning bright red.
But that power was like the might of heaven, something he simply couldn't contend with.
His bones were being squeezed so hard they were cracking and popping, as if they were about to break.
Blood gushed from its mouth, and it struggled wildly in mid-air like a tattered sack.
Under this immense, world-destroying pressure,
The golden core within Xuan Yang Zhenren's body could no longer withstand this terrifying power.
Forced into a reversal of spiritual energy on the spot, it directly reversed and shattered.
Xuan Yang Zhenren looked at the area of his dantian, his eyes filled with despair.
He let out a hysterical scream:
"No—! My golden core! No!"
Boom! ...
A deafening roar shook the entire mountain.
Xuan Yang Zhenren's body exploded in mid-air.
It turned into a cloud of blood mist, leaving not even a trace of bone.
The blinding golden light of the exploding Golden Core mingled with a sky full of blood mist.
It exploded with a bang in the azure sky.
Like a dazzling yet poignant firework, it slowly dissipated in mid-air.
The arena below erupted instantly.
The terrifying shockwave from the explosion of the Golden Core swept across the entire area like a tsunami.
Everyone instinctively raised their hands to cover their faces and squinted.
They were so frightened they almost lost their souls, and they scrambled backward.
Su Muyue stood at the very front, looking at the devastating energy storm in mid-air.
His face turned deathly pale instantly, and his heart leaped into his throat.
It felt like I was being gripped by a hand, making it hard to breathe.
She couldn't hold back any longer and stood on tiptoe, shouting into the air.
His voice was filled with barely concealed anxiety and worry; his throat was hoarse.
Su Muyue (shouting anxiously):
"Lu Jingchen! How are you?! Lu Jingchen!"
Chu Hongyuan and Jiang Zhenbang, who were standing to the side, also had extremely solemn expressions.
Their fists were clenched so tightly that their knuckles turned white.
He stared intently at the energy storm in the sky, his heart pounding in his chest.
Chu Hongyuan (his voice trembled as he muttered to himself):
"Master Lu... please don't let anything happen to you..."
"That's a Golden Core self-destruction, the power is terrifying..."
Just when everyone's heart was in their throat,
A slight ripple appeared in the space beside them.
A tall and slender figure appeared silently beside Su Muyue.
His clothes were neat and clean, without a speck of dust on them, as if nothing had happened.
Su Muyue sensed someone beside her and turned around abruptly.
She saw Lu Jingchen standing beside her, looking at her with a smile on his lips.
Her heart, which had been pounding in her chest, instantly calmed down, and her eyes welled up with tears.
She raised her hand and punched him, feeling both angry and anxious.
Su Muyue (both angry and anxious, her eyes reddening):
"You scared me to death! Couldn't you have told me beforehand about that huge explosion?"
"I thought you..."
Lu Jingchen looked at her worried expression.
A gentle smile curved his lips as he reached out and ruffled her hair.
He pointed to the lingering blood-red mist of fireworks in the sky.
He spoke slowly, his tone relaxed.
Lu Jingchen said:
"How was it? Was that firework beautiful?"
"I put this here especially for you, don't be angry."
Su Muyue looked at his nonchalant attitude.
She was both angry and amused. She glared at him fiercely, but couldn't help but smile.
Chu Hongyuan and Jiang Zhenbang, standing nearby, looked at Lu Jingchen, who was unharmed.
I breathed a huge sigh of relief, my legs went weak, and I almost collapsed to the ground.
The crowd watching watched as Lu Jingchen emerged unscathed.
Looking again at the blood mist that hadn't yet dissipated in mid-air,
A deafening roar of surprise and cheers erupted instantly.
Everyone knew that from this day forward, the entire cultivation world of Jiangnan...
Everyone should remember the name Lu Jingchen.
This nineteen-year-old boy single-handedly turned the tide of the entire Seven Provinces Martial Arts Tournament!
